same i had been on this ferry loads of times serving with my husband in germany and the bow doors were always open leaving the breakwater

My father was a medic on one of the first Belgian navy vessels to respond. They stayed with the ship and he even went in it afterwards to get those who were still down there out. He had nightmares of it for a very long time.

Retrosp3k - ones figure of speech does not does not determine their fate. Who then, do you give thanks for sparing your life? And by the way...luck has nothing t o do with it. I don't even know you, yet I praise my God for giving you the life that you now enjoy to this day...when so many others perished. You have been blessed by someone much far greater than you or I.

sorry to hear that.. I hope you are doing well .

I was 17 at the time. Me and my mate were playing Monopoly when it came on the news. We sat in silence because we both had tickets for a trip to Zebrugge that weekend... but decided not to go. Still gives me the creeps... I was looking for the Milow song when I found this. 1987 was a weird year for disasters.

...but a contradiction.

good point, its a figure of speech!

Why thank God if you don't believe in him?

Remember this well. Had to go on a North Sea ferry a few weeks later. The BBC News website has archive video new reports.

I served on HMS Hurworth which was dispatched to the scene from Ostend. It was chaos. You can actually see a shot of Hurworth at 0423. Those images still haunt me...
